Join us at Tileyard North as we spread some festive cheer this holiday season!

Have you got what it takes to make toys?Wrap presents?Check the naughty/nice list... not once, but twice!! Can you help Santa get ready for his biggest night of the year?

Then join us at the Tileyard North Elf Academy to become a certified Elf of the North Pole!

What is Elf Academy?

The Elf Academy is a 60-minute festive immersive experience for young children aged 4+, that will see participants become certified Elves of the North Pole.

During the event, our trainee elves will have to participate in an elf & safety briefing, wrap presents and take on the delivery assault course – all before becoming certified Elves.

This is a physical activity session that will have children moving, jumping and crawling.

Where can I find the Elf Academy?

The Elf Academy is situated in the grounds of Tileyard North.

Tileyard North can be found on Wakefield’s Waterfront, just at the side of the Hepworth Gallery.

Our Academy will sit in the ground floor unit of our brand-new building The Gradient Mill and can be accessed through both entrances to our Courtyard, on both Tootal Street and Bridge Street.

Do I accompany my child?

Your child will need to be accompanied for registration at the allotted time, then we ask that you return for your child at the end of the session. We unfortunately do not have the space for parents to participate.

Is there anywhere I can stay while my child participates in the Elf Academy?

Yes! The Vinyl Café onsite will be open and operational for guardians to wait during the Elf Academy.

What does my child need to wear?

As this is predominantly a physical activity, something comfortable that they are able to move in.

There will also be a crafty activity, which may get a little messy!
